She Will Trim their Tree

my girlfriend is miffed with her neighbors
Their tree limb is one eighty of an inch over her fence
I know her; she will spend the evening chopping up their tree
She is totally persnickety about her yard

not happy with them anyway
one of them asked her if her front yard was her yard or their yard
you mean the yard between your house and the street? I asked
I could not believe it when she nodded her head
